Mass shooter credits the NRA for enabling his sick actions.
A man who killed five people and injured eight at a Louisville bank in April was motivated by outrage over gun laws he considered lax, and a hope that his rampage would highlight the ease with which he acquired an AR-15 and spur politicians into action on the issue, according to the shooter’s personal writings revealed in a police report Tuesday.
“I have decided to make an impact. These people did not deserve to die, but because I was depressed and able to buy [guns], they are gone. Perhaps this is the impact for change — upper class white people dying. I certainly would not have been able to do this were it more difficult to get a gun,” Connor Sturgeon wrote six days before the April 10 shooting at the Old National Bank where he worked.
Now, he said, his “sickness wins.”
“But let us not forget the most important player here. The one who made all this possible. Lets give it up for the NRA!!” he wrote April 9. “I couldn’t have done this without all of your lobbying dollars! You really brought this whole thing together. This is the world you are building. One without any regard for the value of human life.”
Sturgeon began his rampage at his workplace the next day. He posted on his Instagram that morning: “They won’t listen to words or protests. Let’s see if they hear this,” and live-streamed the attack, the report said. Police shot and killed him at the scene.
Interviews with survivors, victims’ families and Sturgeon’s parents revealed frustration, sorrow and anger over how easy it was for someone with apparent mental health problems to obtain a semiautomatic rifle built for mass violence, The Post reported.

[/quoteBut when rightwing whackjobs do it it's ok, like that idiot in Maine? Or Dylan Roof? It isn't about left or right. The people who do this, who are usualyy but not always white males, are obviously deeply disturbed and aren't getting the help or attention required.

Check the stats for mass shootings...

But when it is a white male it sure makes the news...

Yes that's true. Black gang-bangers shooting each other all the time. Again, it isn't a left or right, black or white issue, is it? It's a psychological/cultural/socio-political issue.

He should also thank the shrinks that gave him the psychotropic drugs that enabled it

Yet you had zero issue with a transgender killing in a Christian school in Nashville.
Your picture is next to the word hypocrite in the dictionary.
The recent case argued before the supreme court case is close to my heart. If mu girlfriend's abusive husband guns had been confiscated, she would be alive today.
Just think about these stats: 21% of all Americans have had a family member killed by a gun. 19% have been threatened by a gun. These stats from KFF.
It keeps getting worse every year. When are we going to stop this?

”Just think about this, you may thank your law enforcement community for failing to place the husband’s name on the NICS, which they have the authority to do. It would have prevented him from purchasing said guns!
There are over 300 gun control laws currently in effect. Law enforcement and prosecutors rarely utilize the laws they have available.
